      Most Doctors are treating symptoms instead of looking for root causes. Poor kids, scrubbing their faces after every class with harsh detergents and anti bacterial stuff, applying these garbage chemicals that strip and irritate, then people say things like, " Eew, gross, go wash your face." My skin got way better when I started using actual soap. You've discovered over active oil production comes from dry skin. Water consumption rate is a big factor to all cellular hydration. Half Gallon, minimum, daily, on top of any other liquid you chose to drink. Diet plays a factor as well. Your skin can help the body purge troublesome toxins that are either what you put in or on your body. Most of those lotions are garbage, with alcohols that dry and crap that clogs. Exercise helps too; the sweat flushes out the pores. My skin, and the rest of me, feel the best when I am actually doing all three of those things at the same time. Diet, water, and some exercise would solve several hundred, "ailments," but that wouldn't make any money for Pharma.

      @@aestheticslifeandstyle190 I had to look this up a while back, because I noticed most of the skin care KRplus videos I watch don’t really explain the difference. Black heads are when the stuff in the pore turns black and are gross and need to be removed. Sebaceous filaments are an accumulation of oils that sit on the skin. And the word filament refers to the tiny hairs (vellous hairs)that normally also are growing out of the pore. Both are actually very normal to have, but when it starts to build up a little on places like the nose it starts to become a more obvious when looked at up close in the mirror. Also it can stretch out the pore a little. Mostly you want to maintain them so they don’t turn into a blackhead, but they don’t /need/ to be removed entirely. I hope this makes sense :D

I was looking like a bag of arse until one of your videos popped up. Retinoids changed everything. My masking is gone, my freckles are gone, my nose filaments are gone, the wrinkles are much reduced, I don't have any blackheads, and I actually have real color in my face! One of you suggested Differin gel and WOW! I keep things simple: Palmers Cocoa Butter soap, Differin, and Ponds Rejuveness. Don't cringe, I'm a cheapskate and it works. It takes time, but I keep at it and the results are really obvious.

    The way these two speak about “sebaceous filaments” is typical to someone who hasn’t actually had to deal with large pores and compensatory oil build up. I’ve used salicylic acid, peeling, no moisturizer, added moisturizer, Retinoids, etc. Dealing with blackheads isn’t as simple as they make it out to be. AND the patient in the first clip with the pore strip, I don’t believe that’s to treat “extensive” sebum, for people suffering with this problem we face this amount, like I said, or a very regular basis.

      So true. Blackheads are the hardest thing to get rid of in my experience. I use/have used everything recommended and it doesn't help. My whole skincare routine is great and i hardly get pimples, but blackheads love me on my cheeks lol.The only thing i've used that helps is the La Roche posay Duo effaclair BHA treatment- it's gold but with a caveat . But, the problem is it dries out the area you apply it and then it turns the blackhead hard- and then i have to resist the urge to pop it out. Then, when i do i apply Vaseline right away and hopes the pore goes back to it's correct size. I have only one pore that became a little enlarged from an old blackhead. I think that Paul's Choice's BHA is overhyped from my experienced. Used a whole bottle and it didn't prevent me from getting blackheads for sure! But, I'm always on the hunt for a great BHA. there is a face wash i heard that is popular called Panoxyl Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10% i plan to try next and use it the nights i don't use my retinal.

No amount of lasers have helped those broken vessels. But they also then resulted in even worse blockage in those pores. It was like they created more space for gross stuff to go.

    Pore strips only work if you have open pores. They have never worked for my kids and me since we have closed pores. A lot of the products mentioned can be extremely harmful to some skin. Eczema for example. We can't use them at all. Picture a face with raw skin that looks like severe sunburn. If you're going to use them do a patch test. If you end up getting a raw spot it's better if it's a small one and not your whole face.

      As another commenters said, try cutting sugar/dairy, and I would add soy. Also check his liver function.

    What has worked wonders for me is using a soft exfoliating skin cleanser applying it with a very soft toothbrush in the stubborn areas like my nose. I do that once in a while. They dissapear right away but what I was lacking was a good treatment to prevent them to show up again so fast and your video gave me the amazing tips I was lacking. Tahnk you very much!

    Hydrocolloid strips are the only thing that have actually significantly reduced appearance for me but have to use them pretty often

    I have binge watched all of your videos!! Love the super accessible and tangible way you explain skincare. Any interest in looking at high frequency wands? I see them all over Instagram and wonder if it’s a fad or if there is some logic to them. Would love to see them addressed!

    When it comes to pores and acne Salicylic acid is always at the top, what an amazing ingredient I love it.

      @@DK-by4ee what I mentioned in the comment, I love Salicylic Acid. So I use a Salicylic acid cleanser, Retinol, moisturizer and sunscreen other stuff is just waste of money.

    I have this issue. Plus redness and wrinkles starting since I’m 30. I also have a ton of freckles and always thought the different colors were due to that lol. I have started this exact routine and excited to see what my face will look like without all the junk. Will update on how it goes!

    Dr Shah, found your KRplus by chance and purchased Paula's choice. I saw results within 2 week and my pores are smaller. Thank you!
